This year Gwyn decided a tea party would be the way to go for her birthday. She loves her American Girl dolls so it would be tea for two.
I won't lie....I had a great time preparing for this!
I think it turned out lovely. I forgot to take pictures of the tea bags that they took home with their prizes...
schucks!
We had a fashion show to begin with....The girls and Talon (the one boy there) loved this. I took pictures of all 12 of the kids but to post them all might put me over the edge. We took some video of it so maybe I will post that.
Then we had a lovely High Tea. We had heart, butterfly, and flowered shaped
pb&j sandwiches. We also had my favorite cucumber finger sandwiches, melon balls, veggies, and COOKIES galore! Instead of tea we had apple juice.....thought the kids would like that a little more.
Grandy, Aunt Amy, Aunt Laura, Amelia,
Monson, and Mia came just for the party! What a treat.
Grandy brought this tray full of cupcakes for Gwyn. They were so cute with pictures of Gwyn on each of them. She is so fun a creative.
We decided to try to keep it small but in our neighborhood alone there are 12 kids that she plays with, and Piper (from another neighborhood) is always invited. They don't really have a choice in being friends!
Gwyn got some lovely things from her friends.
They played a game called put the sugar cube in the tea cup...
See Gwyn's amazing dress???
My mom made it for her for her birthday!
After eating cupcakes they all went to jump on the tramp in
their fancy dresses!! I loved Piper with her
petti-skirt that wouldn't stay up.
It was a fun party!
I can't believe she is four already....It's all going to fast. I am trying to make every moment count.
P.S. If you were wondering what my boys were doing during this time....What else? Dressing up and scaring the girls. 11 little girls 1 little boy screaming there lungs out....not so much fun.
